Meanwhile, the Israeli government has muzzled captives freed from Gaza to prevent further damage to the official narrative. Firsthand testimony by admittedly inexperienced Israeli tank operators reveals orders to open fire upon Israeli communities when Palestinian militants breached the fences encircling Gaza on October 7.
